Eau de Toilette (EDT) from Davidoff.
Paid links · Sold via a marketplace listing · how this works
Scent description (editorial impression)
Still the cleanest thing to wear on a hot day, to its owners, this is the blue aquatic that set the template: mint, lavender and a salty, ozonic splash on musk. One owner's friends say it smells like restroom cleaner, and the owner insists the cleaner copied it. Most agree it fades fast; one wearer simply uses six to nine sprays.

More from Davidoff
Cool Water Woman Eau de Toilette
Eau de Toilette (EDT). Cold, sharp and fruity, to the wearer who made it their first love; to another, an icy gulp of water on a summer day, or what the Windows XP hills would smell like.
Cool Water Intense Eau de Parfum
Eau de Parfum (EDP). Green mandarin starts it, orange Fanta to one nose, and a creamy coconut nectar follows before an amber base that refuses to leave.
Cool Water Parfum
Parfum / Extrait. Pink pepper opens it, Haitian vetiver runs the middle and sandalwood closes: a Cool Water in name that owner after owner says has little to do with the original, spicier and sweeter, nearer Sauvage or Invictus than the 1988 aquatic.
